Hi,

A friend of mine is running Window Eyes 6.0 - and no, he is currently not in a position to upgrade to the latest and greatest. I am wondering what is the latest version of skype to work well with Widnow Eyes 6. I seem to vaguely remember that the changes introduced to skype with version 3.5 and higher caused widnow eyes not to be able to read the text chat anymore as it could not see the MSAA text. Is this correct? My friend uses the WE mouse cursor to read his text chat.

also, is the skype options dialog accessible to Window eyes 6 in versions of skype 3.x?

Any advice is much appreciated as I am a jaws user and do not have a demo of WE 6 on my system.

Thanks much.

Doris
